With a view to meet a universally admitted want the undetsigned will issue 011 Monday, the Ist o July next, a Morning Penny Paper, to be called "THE UNION." The great mission of the Democratic Party, which has ever stood as the bulwark of tbe UNION and the Champion of the- CONSTITUTION, renders its entire unity and bold attitude in this hour of National per il a matter of vital concern. The p ending struggle is not less for the maintenance oi a United Coun try than for the Perpetuation of Democratic Princi ples, as expounded by JEFFERSON and JACKSON. Tbe most moinento s results ha:.g upon the issue. Meie party questions are for the time by common con sent adjourned. The past is dead, save in its les sons ot experience. The Democratic hosts have not shrunk fiom their full share tn the responsibilities and dangers of the emergency. They have rallied with ooe accord a round the standard of our common country. But the occasion impo=es other duties. The Govern ment will demand aud receive the willing support of every patriot, in its efforts to vindicate the Na tional honor and re-asserl the National authority ; but the Preservation of Constitutional Liberty rests more with the people than with Congresses and Cabinets. Vigilance and Unity art therefore spe cially requisite 111 the present juncture. It is the purpose of the Proprietors to make "THE UNION," in every respect a first-class Journal.— The Democracy of the whole Stale feel the need of a bold and vigorous Metropolitan daily ; and no ef fort will be spared to reader THE UNION both popular and efficient as a newspaper, and as a tear less exponent of the great principles for which the Democratic party have ever contended, and which are now so unhappily imperilled. The Proprietors have perfected such arrange ments as will place the enterprise, from the begin ning, upon a substantial business basis, with abun dant means to make a Newspaper second in inter est and ability to no other in the city • and while the paper will be fearlessly Democratic, it will sed ulously avoid ail faction, as the deadliest bane to party efficiency. We look to the Demooratic Masses for support, and shall labor to make I'HK UNION in every way worthy their confidence and liberal patronage, as a fresh, readable and fearless Journal.

These Watches have ROW been in the market for nearly ten years, during which time they have been tested as to ACCURACY, DURABILITY AND RELIABII ITY, in every conceivable manner, and have proved themselves to be the most satisfactoiy tune pieces ever offered to the public. This result has been brought about by a stiictap pli cation of mechanical science to the construction of the watch from its very iuception, rendeung it, when finished * MATHEMATICALLY CORRECT, in all proportions, and necessarily as perfect a 'time keeper as it is possible to make. The Company have tested their Watches, in many instances, by actual daily noting, and the re sult of this test has been that they have exhibited a rate aqual in regularity to the best marine chro nometer.
